I like the choice of words Sub !!! Sunday afternoon I was thinking the end had came to it !!!

I wouldnt care, I know i shouldnt take notice of the instructions. I dont honestly know why I used twin pack to begin with. Never again i know that !

Today the bearings, and I mean all bearings have been resined in, and on high load ones like the prop shafts I have reinforced them with Milliput.

And nervousley I connected the tanks back up again, and they work fine !
Talk about dodging a bullet on that one!!! Still having a few issues with the lid warping slightley. I have had to remove a little of the materiel around the forward planes, as they were catching. So I think in the near future I am going to reinforce the lid with additional fibreglass and resin. just bands of it maybe ,to keep the weight down.

fingers crossed for Thursday morning!

I will take a couple of pictures, so long as it doesnt sink this time !!!
